“Well, I for one am very relieved to have discovered Analytical Grammar. This program is going to unburden a lot of families from the pressure of having to do grammar ‘all the time.’ I believe Robin has struck an absolute home run with these programs.”
"We have always struggled with drill-and-kill grammar in our home. I think the entire Analytical Grammar approach is fabulous and highly recommend it to the parents of all kinds of learners. It's a real winner!"
“Overall, these courses do a thorough job with grammar and diagramming and are easy for both teacher and student to use.”
"Use this program for grammar, spend less time doing drill-and-kill worksheets, and spend more time reading and writing. After all, that is the reason for grammar study – to foster good writers and adept readers. Analytical Grammar will help you in this endeavor."
-Homeschooling 101: The Essential Handbook“Analytical Grammar is a challenging yet thorough grammar program. It covers everything you will ever need to know about parts of speech, usage, diagramming, as well as punctuation. We have been VERY pleased with this program, and highly recommend it.”
“By creating the Analytical Grammar course, Robin Finley has taken a subject that can often be very confusing and broken it down into bite-sized pieces so every student can have a thorough understanding of grammar that will benefit them throughout their lives. Grade: A”
"I do believe my homeschooling dilemmas are over in the area of English thanks to Analytical Grammar. I was given a complete set of their curriculum to try out and review and I am TOTALLY sold on this product."
"I absolutely love this program!! It really makes my kids think about how our language works which helps in the learning of other languages."
Customers e-mail us all the time to tell us what they think of AG. Below are some unsolicited comments we've received from home teachers who are using AG products with their students.
"We are a homeschool family and have used AG this year with an 8th grader and a 10th grader. We are doing the whole book in one year.
We have throughly enjoyed using AG! I cannot think of a better book to cement grammar information on a high school level. Our oldest child just took the ACT back in February. Normally, he scores highest in the area of math. However, HIS HIGHEST SUBTEST WAS ENGLISH, of all things. He scored a 29 on the English subtest of the ACT.
We can not thank you enough for this wonderful product!"

"Hello. I just wanted you to know what a NIGHTMARE these last few years of grammar has been. You have changed EVERYTHING!!! I never thought that i would find a curriculum that my son could actually enjoy! Thanks!"
-Shirley Byrd
"My 16-year-old son couldn't remember a noun from a verb, despite numerous grammar programs and he hated grammar. Now, nine months into the two-year -track program, he is diagramming complex sentences that make my head spin! Best of all, he is able to learn the new concepts on his own with very little instruction from Mom. I still can't say he enjoys grammar, but he is enjoying a newfound confidence!

"Dear Robin, I met you and talked a bit about your products at the convention in St.Charles, MO, where I purchased your "Teaching the Essay" Set. It was by far the best writing tool we have ever used. My daughter Katelyn, who is in 8th grade, used to abhor writing, but now does it well, and with very little, if any, complaining! She is using the format for many other types of papers than the literary essay, and she has been applying the method to all of her assignments even in other classes. She keeps her blank copies of the worksheets and uses them over and over. I am so excited to see the "Teaching the Research Paper," which I will gladly be picking up at the convention this year."

"My children are in Unit 9 of Season One and are doing unbelievably well. I don't ever remember doing grammar in school and am excited that my children will have such a wonderful foundation in understanding sentence structure. Today they were labeling so quickly that I could barely keep up with them. They are in sixth and eighth grade. Thank you for this program. It has worked so well."

"I wanted to write and say, "Thank you." Your program is wonderful."
